Students can present their research and creative projects
during Methodist University's annual CURC Symposium.
Presentation styles can be discipline specific (e.g., performances, readings,
or the more traditional oral presentation). Students not wishing to present
their material in an oral format can create and display their work in
a poster format.

Students who want to immerse themselves in a culture of research and
creativity can become Methodist University URC Fellows. Beginning the
second semester of the student's freshman year, he or she can apply to
become a URC Fellow Candidate. Over the course of the next 1.5 semesters,
the Candidate will fulfill a series of requirements that will be made
available to them and that will be focused on research and creative projects.

At the end of the sophomore year, the student will be eligible to apply
to become a URC Fellow. If selected to become a Fellow, the student will
then have a series of other requirements that must be met before graduation,
at which time the student will apply for the URC Fellow Certificate of
Completion.

The pathway to becoming a Methodist University URC Fellow is intended
to be intense and rigorous. However, upon completion of the program, the
successful students will be well-rounded and open-minded and will have
had an experience that sets them apart from their peers at MU and other
institutions.

Coming Soon! Within the next two years students will be able to apply
for the Summer Undergraduate Research and Creativity
Experience. This Experience will be more intense and in-depth as
the project will be the student's main focus and will not be balanced
with more formal course work of a typical semester. At the end of the
Experience, the student will be required to present his or her material
in a manner suitable for the discipline.
